While speaking about the ROH World Title match between Chris Jericho and Claudio Castagnoli, Keller noted how Punk's name was excluded when Ian Riccaboni talked about the big names that have held the title.

Keller also added that he doesn't expect Punk to return and while nothing is 100 percent set in stone, things seem to be leaning towards a buyout of Punk's contract. .

"I think this is noteworthy but not surprising [that] he excluded CM Punk's name as he talked about some of the biggest names who have held the title," Keller said.
